Case Results

When the insurer won't move, we file.

Most of the cases below came to us after another firm had already taken the insurer's number. We took over, put the case on a path to trial, and the number changed. Insurers pay more to firms willing to sue. That is the whole strategy, and it works.

The prior offer, on cases another firm had already worked

Six recent settlements from Venyx Injury Law, including three cases another firm had already worked. Figures are real. Names are not published.

Every case is different. Results depend on the specific facts, injuries, and applicable law and do not guarantee or predict a similar outcome in another case. Settlement figures reflect total case value before deduction of attorney's fees, costs, and any liens.

The Cases

Six Recent Results

Each one with the offer, the timeline, and the fee where it applies. Three of the six came to Venyx with another firm's number already on the table.

Rear bumper damage after a rear-end collision
Rear bumper after the collision. State Farm's top offer on this claim was $10,791.
01Rear-End Collision · Denver
Full policy limits$100,000
Prior firm's top offer$10,791

State Farm's top offer to the client's prior firm on a rear-end collision was $10,791. When we took over, State Farm's only move was to match that number.

We filed suit in Denver District Court. State Farm paid the full $100,000 policy limits within a few months of filing.

The oncoming driver crossed the double yellow and hit our client head-on, rolling her car. Her medical bills came to about $40,000.

The insurer offered $50,000, then $72,000. We declined both, told them we would file if the limits were not paid, and they paid the full $100,000.

Driver's side damage after a side-swipe collision
Front driver's side after the wide left turn.
03Side-Swipe Left Turn · Denver
Venyx settlement$46,000
Prior offer$22,639

The other driver swung wide on a left turn into our client's lane and swiped the driver's side of her car. Her medical bills came to roughly $24,700. Her first firm waited more than two years to file suit, then dropped her before the first court conference. Once in litigation, the insurer denied liability outright.

We took the case at that point. Under four months later it settled for $46,000, double the offer that had been sitting on the table.

Scuffed rear bumper after a rear-end collision
About $1,600 in bumper repair. The insurer used this to argue the injury was minor.
04Rear-End, Minimal Vehicle Damage · Denver
Full policy limits$25,000
Prior offer$11,222

The bumper repair estimate was about $1,600. The insurer used that to try to minimize the value of our client's injuries and offered exactly what the medical bills came to, $11,222, and not a dollar more. Her first firm did not want to litigate.

We took over in late April. Within about a week we sent a demand for the full $25,000 policy limits with a 14-day deadline and a lawsuit behind it. The insurer paid within the deadline.

Front driver's side damage after a collision while leaving a parking spot
Front driver's side after a passing car struck the vehicle as it left a parallel parking spot.
05Improper Start From Parked Position
Full policy limits$25,000

Our client was ticketed for pulling out of a parallel parking spot when a passing car struck him. That citation is usually where an insurer digs in.

We sent a policy-limits demand with notice that we were prepared to file. The insurer paid the full $25,000.

Why It Works

The offer changes when the insurer believes you'll sue.

Three of the six cases on this page followed the same path. Dylan spent years inside one of Colorado's largest injury firms and left to do this without the overhead that keeps most firms from litigating a $25,000 case. Lower overhead, lower fee, and a real willingness to go to court.

  1. Another firm had the case.The insurer made an offer built on the assumption that no one would file.
  2. We took over.Demand letter with a deadline, or a case already in litigation that we were prepared to try.
  3. The number moved.Full policy limits, or double the offer that had been sitting on the table.
